Thank you so much, Chair.
Mr. BĂ©land, your essay on the economics of equalization alludes to the cost of living and how that can encourage or dissuade migration. I think all Canadians from coast to coast to coast are feeling extremely strapped for cash right now.
I'm wondering if you are concerned about the impacts of inflation. Are there areas of the country that you feel may be more at risk for feeling the impacts of inflation disproportionately? If so, what's the risk for provinces in terms of fiscally induced migration?
